  • 30 Days

    30 Days till Sean Michael will be here, unless he decides to come earlier. We have the nursery mostly set up. The only thing missing is the diaper changing table that Kenny's Mom has at her house but she still has plenty of time to bring it over. I am excited and scared at the same time. It has been awhile since I have cared for a baby. I mean Danyale will be turning 8 in 12 days. I miss the small things like the fist curling around one of my fingers or a baby's head resting on my shoulder, the smell of a clean baby. Yet I have never cared for a boy and haven't the first clue what I need to care for him. I believe I am off to a good start though. Got the crib, diapers, wipes, pump, bottles, washcloths, towels, desitin, wash and lotion, and some clothes.

    I have been trying to behave but not so good at it. I leave the house only to go shopping or take a test or go to Mom's. It is hard to stay on complete bedrest. I try not to worry about what I am missing by being stuck in bed. My wedding anniversary is also coming up in 34 days and I am hoping that barring no complications and such that I am out of the hospital for that occasion. We will see.

    I hope my xanga family is doing great and staying healthy. If you want to be my friend on facebook, look up Tracy Barnes and sweets8881@hotmail.com.

  • The Goings On

    Okay so I have been behaving which is extremely hard for me to do. I have complied with the bedrest to the best of my ability. The only time I leave the house is to go to Mom's, the store or the library. Meanwhile I am becoming extremely addicted to facebook. I have to take Danyale to her school's openhouse Friday Morning but I don't think that will be too strenuous or stressful. Tomorrow is Mom's birthday so I will be chilling over there all day.

    Danyale has been getting as much Gama time in as she can before school starts. But I think she is finally ready to come home. She is growing up so fast. I can't believe she is going to be 8 in less than 2 months. There are times she is still my little girl and sometimes where she is too grown up for her own good. She is very bright. She is supposed to be starting an advance program at school called venture but I haven't heard anything yet. I think it is funny how the books on her reading list for the summer are Dr Seuss but she is trying to read the Harry Potter series. She takes after the women in her family for sure. She likes the idea of having a baby brother but I think she is becoming a little insecure about it. I guess I am going to have to constantly reassure her in the next couple of months that nothing is going to change except for less quiet and more loud around here. But I am sure she will get used to it and be a natural at being an older sibling. I may have to keep her from being too bossy but she will keep an eye like a hawk on him.

    Mom and I are going to do the 4D ultrasound next Tuesday. I am excited about that because they weren't available with Danyale. I am now going to the doctor twice a week. She says I will be starting the weekly visits sooner than 36 weeks because I am high-risk but she hadn't said exactly when that is. I am now 29 weeks today. Sean Michael will be here in 10 weeks at the latest. Time seems to be going faster now. I of course have my concerns but I am handing them over to God. He has seen me through worse times and he will see me through this in whatever he wants. My school is supposed to start on the 17th of August and my director says she is going to get as many of my classes online so I can lower the amount of time that I get out of the house to come up to the school. That oughta help alot but I am concerned about my drive. I want to get everything done but will I need to be at school to do it.

    OH WELL I hope everything is great in your world's.

  • The goings on

    Well Danyale is at her Daddy's until Father's Day evening, but we talk every morning and evening. I miss her like crazy. But she is handleing it well. I told her when she gets back we will spend every afternoon together doing something. Plus Kenny is talking about going camping with all the kids one weekend. Should be stressful but fun.

    Well the pregnancy is going well. Trying not to sweat the small stuff. I know that what is important is staying ocused on being well and healthy in order for Sean Michael to be born safely. Yeah I changed the name again and may do so again if I decide the name isn't right after all. He will be born in a controlled environment so that I can stop taken my Heparin the night before and have everything as controlled as possible to lower my risk for hemorrhaging. I am excited about this. I have already registered at Walmart. Starting to look at what I need and trying to rememeber what I used and didn't use with Danyale. Plus looking for a bigger place in the same kind of pay range as we have now. Which isn't much but I am praying that something good will pop up that we can afford but I am not stressing over it because if we have to we can take the living room out and make it into the nursery slash bedroom.

    Kenny and I are enjoying this little honeymoon time to ourselves though. I had a wonderful weekend with him just chilling at the house just the two of us. I wished it didn't have to end but of course we have responsibilities and bills. I am at work right now, so I should probably get back to the job. I will catch you guys later.

  • Pregnancy Update

    Okay so I went to see the Cardiologist and they put me on a Holter Monitor for 48 hours. The results came back yesterday. The nurse said that besides a fast heart rate and an occasional early heart beat I am fine. There is nothing that needs to be done treatment wise. Just not to stress or overdo. The other: I am getting better with giving myself shots but still hate it and thinks it is too painful for me to do. I am supposed to know whether it is a boy or girl two weeks from today. Still hoping for a boy but I have names picked out for either. I am starting to show and feel incredibly fat most of the times.

     

    I wanted to thank those of you that have sent me your positive thoughts and prayers. I sure have needed them.

About Me

  • I am married to my soulmate and bestfriend. We have 3 beautiful children between the 2 of us. We love them to death even though they drive us insane sometimes by not getting along or minding. I am in school to become a HIM Director. HIM stands for Health Information Management which is Medical Record Director. I am the class president so my schedule is pretty full. Between those responsibilities, my homework and being a mom and wife. My time is full up.
